OpenID Talk

Johannes Ernst is moderating a panel on OpenID that should be interesting, if for no other reason than Yahoo will be on it and talking about their embrace of OpenID. I wish I could go but I will be in Denver on the 29th.

I guess that whole non-replaceable MacBook Air battery issue kind of goes away with this development.

MacBook Air and Target Markets

Devin makes a number of entirely logical and valid points in his post while at the same time completely missing the point that sub-portable laptops ARE for people who want basic functions.

I looked at the demo on Apple’s site today and found myself lusting for one but then saying “well it doesn’t have an optical […]

Cisco Telepresence

I was down at Cisco yesterday and saw a demo of their telepresence setup and the “connected sports” concept they are promoting for the new stadium the Oakland A’s want to build in Fremont.

The telepresence demo blew me away. Sure it’s pricey at up to $300k per setup, but the experience is amazing and removes […]

Amazon World Domination Can Now Begin

AWS filled a major gap in their offering with the addition of SimpleDB. Two things jumped out at me, the first being that it’s optimized for very large datasets and the second, more important as well, observation is that it’s designed around search indexes instead of schemas.

There’s a lot more to be said about SimpleDB, […]

BMW Brings IP to Cars

Every one of the panelists answered with the same theme, advertising has to move from a push model to a rich and interactive pull model. In plainer language, instead of getting an ad shoved in front of you, you go and get […]

Under the Radar - Mobility

Swung down to the UTR event on mobility today. I missed the morning session because I had to go to traffic court ($122, no traffic school option), so I missed the search and discovery session that featured two of my recent favorite companies, Boopsie and Buzzwire, and the publishing platform session featuring Mobio.

Here in the […]
